if your referring to fc united, who claim to be the 'real fans' but turned their backs on the club just because glazer took over, then no i would never go to see them. nobody wanted glazer to takeover man u but thats no reason to form and support another club. i'd say they were never real fans. however for a recently formed team they are doing well and have the second-highest attendance anywhere in non-league football.

what made you bring that up?

our game with chelsea was a great contest, us getting the better of 1st half and them the 2nd, and saha's goal was amazing and typical of what he can produce.
i heard a few years back it was Man united, Santos and Celtic who were top 3 in terms of support, real and Ac milan were 4th and 5th, find that hard to understand but celtic have a massive, North American support, European and asian following. il see if i can find some proof as it might just be hearsay.

a custoemr mentioned fc united the other night, says he now supports them as he doesnt think that the glazers are interested in the club and are just in it for money. personally id follow celtic through thick and thin and would never turn my back on it.
